Does anyone have views on the decision to put BBC TV Centre in London up for sale? There's been outrage on Twitter by some celebs and commentators, but what's the general mood in the wider production community? Is describing the sale as a disaster a reasonable argument, or shortsighted nostalgia? What impact will it really have on the future of TV production in London and elsewhere?

The Rise of the eBook

The shock of the new is quickly overcome by boredom. Frankly, I’m already fed up with the repetitive nature of media coverage when it comes to ebooks.

 

Every news story is hooked on some latest sales record or notable publishing ‘landmark’; for example, Bloomsbury recently reported that worldwide sales of its ebooks have increased by around 1,800% in the last year, a record almost certainly to be broken during 2011, given that the first three months of the year have already matched… Continue
